Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 559 Does He Not Care About Her?
Raymond sat in the office chair at the Montague Group, with John by his side. John consistently briefed Raymond on the upcoming week's scheduled meetings.
"The script has been in production for a month now, with one-third of the content completed. The Montague Group has also been receiving numerous investment invitations from directors. Raymond, I have already shortlisted some suitable ones for your review," John remarked.
Placing a stack of documents in front of him, Raymond glanced at them briefly before setting them aside, inquiring, "Were those two pairs of shoes delivered to her?"
He wondered, 'Did she not express any gratitude?'
"Yes, they were delivered. I specifically instructed the courier to leave them outside her door, but she wasn't home that day, so they were placed in the communal storage box by the residents' entrance," John replied.
The storage box was generously sized, originally intended for storing mail and packages. Ideally, homeowners would routinely cast a glance at it upon returning home each day.
Raymond fumed in frustration, but in an instant, his expression turned indifferent.
So be it.
He had already moved on, and he didn't care much anymore.
It was all irrelevant now.
In the evening, Selena received a gift from the Montague family's old mansion: a ticket for a cruise.
The steward had specifically instructed, "Selena, Cassius wishes for you to unwind. It is currently the most luxurious cruise party in all of New York. It sets sail tonight and will cruise around the rivers of New York for three days. The guests at the feast will include prominent figures from the business realm and a plethora of A-list celebrities. Cassius believes this experience will be beneficial for you."
During her phone conversation with Cassius last night, Selena mentioned film and television investments. The essence of such investments lied in resources.
However, S.M's resources were currently lacking. The senior executives were diligently investing in short films, with most receiving positive feedback over the past month, although a small minority had incurred losses. Accumulating resources was a gradual process. If Selena didn't lead the charge, she couldn't lead this group of people.
Cassius now presented Selena with an opportunity to gather resources through networking. "Please thank Cassius on my behalf." Selena replied calmly.
A faint smile formed on the steward's lips as they retrieved an exquisite gift box from the side.
"This is a gown specially chosen by Cassius. It was just air-freighted back this morning, and there is only one of its kind globally. Consider it a gift for you." The steward emphasized.
Cassius was really good to her.
So Selena had no regrets about the three-month agreement; it could also be considered as giving him an explanation.
The housekeeper suggested again, "Cassius also said that this time you are going as Steve's apprentice, so if you don't want to recognize the identity as a member of the Montague family, then you don't have to let them know about you, so that it will be easier for you to leave after two months."
Cassius really did all the thinking for her.
Selena thanked again.
Before leaving, the butler added, "Let the driver from Ashbourne Manor take you there. The styling team will be here shortly."
Selena waited in Ashbourne Manor for about fifteen minutes, and sure enough, the top styling team arrived.
While waiting for them to style her, she had Ann bring over the files from the past few days so she could review a few. Ann arrived quickly and quietly handed her each file.
Selena expressed her opinions while going through the files and instructed Ann on what to do in the next three days. Then she noticed Ann's phone had fallen to the ground, with a photo of her and a man as the screensaver.
"Is he your boyfriend?" Selena asked.
Ann was a bit embarrassed but nodded slightly.
Selena had a good memory and thought he looked very honest.
After reviewing eight files and having her makeup done, Ann complimented her quietly.
"Selena, you look really beautiful."
Selena's makeup was not extravagant but exquisite, and the forehead adornment complemented her fair and beautiful skin.
Having never worn such adornments before, she turned to the styling team standing nearby.
"Could this accessory be seen as too extravagant?" she inquired.
The styling team hastened to clarify, "Selena, the cruise party demands such attire. It won't be ostentatious. We've exercised restraint in dressing you up. Once you arrive at the venue, you will understand." Selena trusted these individuals, and after all, Cassius brought them in.
Her dress was a fringed diamond gown, strapless with a sweetheart neckline. She also wore a trendy diamond necklace.
The necklace extended from her chest up to her neck, sparkling brightly against her fair skin, creating a particularly striking appearance.
Anyone who laid eyes on it would feel their cheeks flush and their hearts race.
Selena was dressed up so grandly for the first time and gave Ann a few more instructions before following the driver.
Upon arriving at the cruise ship, she realized how massive it was, like a behemoth.
As she walked halfway down the stairs with her skirt swaying, she saw several A-list female stars coming towards her.
A group of cameras followed, capturing the stars posing.
To attend this cruise banquet, one had to reach the level of an A-list star; otherwise, they wouldn't qualify to come. Selena noticed someone filming and quickly turned around.
However, the camera still captured her figure, albeit only from the back, yet her silhouette was captivating enough. "Who is that celebrity? Why didn't she walk the red carpet?"
"Her back is stunning."
The cameras focused on Selena's back as they continued filming.
Selena was unaware and took the invitation, handing it to the person at the entrance for verification.
Before she could finish verifying, she heard Alex's voice behind her.
"Raymond, tonight is all about unwinding and perhaps a bit of romantic conquest for you. Aren't you starting to grow tired of Selena? It might be time for a new companion."
